1963owl Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 Silly tackle when he was on a yellow but abusing him is a disgrace. The kid was just trying too hard 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He won the ball cleanly.ir wasn't even a foul, nay mind a card. Pathetic, joke of a decision. You should be pointing the finger where it belongs, at the ref. Worst decision I have seen for many years. It wasn’t a foul in 1993, but in today’s game that’s a yellow card all day long. People can say “the game’s gone” until they’re blue on the face (and they’re probably right) but going in like that with studs showing (whether you win the ball or not) has been a booking for over 10 years now. Liam Shaw has grown up in the world where this is a booking and to dive in like that, in that area of the pitch and on a booking was f**king stupid to put it mildly. Without a doubt he’s the reason we didn’t get anything out of today’s game. Edited February 20, 2021 by TrickyTrev 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIGHERSTATE Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 Im angry, but to be honest we cant throw him under the bus. He sounds like a good honest lad. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like it or not, the rules have been set in stone for a long time that you are going to get into trouble if your trailing leg takes out the opponent after the ball has gone. His challenge lacked control and left himself open to a 2nd booking, only himself to blame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An arrogant decision by someone who knows all football teams struggle to win a game with only 10 men. If today was the last game of the season & the loss got us relegated, I don’t care if it was a mistake, it would be his fault I’ve not read tripe like that since I finished the da Vinci code. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minesapint Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 People blaming him for our coming relegation are talking nonsense. We will not be relegated due to one game. We might be relegated because we have a 6 point deduction to make up, or because we are on our 3rd manager albeit temporary. But Liam Shaws decision today will not be the cause. With regards to today in my opinion the first yellow was not even a foul. The second incident, while in my view innocuous, the way the game is going could be considered a yellow. Liam Shaw like everyone else will learn by gaining experience and making mistakes that’s how it works. To say he shouldn’t be playing is also a comment without any real understanding. He is a professional footballer who will do his best for the team he has supported all his life, while ever he is employed by them, and that looks as though it may be longer than we thought earlier this week. Sith a bit of luck he will continue to be a Wednesday player for some years to come and his career will continue to develop 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Brum player wasn't going anywhere. There is a time and a place to dive in and he's done it in a stupid position and when already on a yellow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torryowl Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 missed a good chance got booked when he shouldnt have and then sent off for a tackle he should never have been making with the yellow under his belt ......nightmare day for him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pat blondeau Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 I didn’t think either were yellow cards. Debatable whether they were even fouls. First one was an accidental collision and never a yellow. The second one maybe he goes in a bit rashly but he gets the ball 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Losing to Birmingham won’t be the reason. Don’t be daft. Losing games like today’s is what will get us relegated. The -6 points means we need to win at least 2 more games than 3 other teams. The objective is clear & the players should take their share of accountability. The opportunity of winning today’s game was gone when the red card came out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
